It’s startling to hear that in one case only 4 individuals remain. I have to admit that I’m sympathetic to the humans who need the animals for food (I’m assuming it’s a real need), and it’s hard to know how to address this specific problem.

Exactly! And, of course elimination of the Entitlement Programs, which led to the extinction of these animals by making them too dependent on government welfare. Remember the Passenger Pigeon and the Dodo; both the victims of the Socialist policies of that man Roosevelt.
